Today we had the delight of attending a pottery class at Crock A Doodle with KICK. We had a good time. Some of the pieces painted where done quiet nicely. The children all seemed to enjoy themselves. Afterwards we headed to Mary's house for a lunch, snacks, movie and a chat/playtime. It was a wonderful day.

So let's just to more pictures and less typing. (ouch, silly broken thumb). When the children arrived they had the opportunity to check out the shelves for what they wanted to make. Some children knew immediately what they wanted to do, others had quite the decision to make. Much discussion happened in those instances. But smiles were already beginning.

From looking at available pieces on-line my son quickly decided that a cocoa mug was what he wanted to do. I much appreciated that this option was available to us.

After pottery decisions were made, it was time to take in some basic instruction from Kim.

Each participant needed to wipe the dust off their piece, being careful not to make their pottery wet.

we had two types of paint available to us, so we needed to learn how to paint with them.

They will do the glazing and firing work. We can pick them up in January.
